Sure, if I was in Oregon this wouldn't be a big deal. I mean a whole blog on what our commute to work looks like. The pictures are a little dark because it's 7:30 am. It's not a bad drive, it only takes ten to fifteen minutes. Cycling is scary but we do it anyways and that takes about 30 minutes. Drivers here do what they want, when they want. That includes making three lanes when there are only two or passing on the sidewalks (I only did it once). Cops like to randomly pull you over but I ignore them when they wave to me and they haven't chased me yet. My neighborhood is called N'Gor (named after the island that we go to). Then we pass through Almadies which is posh. Then we drive up the green for now hill where the lighthouse is located. The Frenchies like to run there. We then pass down through the palm tree lined Corniche and that is where the school is located. The Corniche is nice because it runs alongside the ocean. It's a nice place to walk or ride your bike. Many Senegalese like to workout along this road. Lately though there have been attacks on expats and one of my colleagues and her husband were mugged. That sucked!
Who's who: That's Saun at the first gate, Cisse at the second with Gabbie, and Adams with a paycheck.
